Stabilizing Settling Patio Slab in Longwood, Florida

A homeowner in Longwood, Florida, contacted LRE Foundation Repair after noticing that their large concrete patio slab, which supported their home’s AC unit, was separating from the house and sinking into the soil. Concerned about the structural integrity of the patio, they scheduled a free inspection with one of our expert Design Specialists.

During the assessment, we discovered that significant soil erosion, caused by rainwater runoff from the roof, had compromised the slab’s stability. To provide a lasting solution, our team installed a helical pier system around the patio’s foundation, ensuring durable support and preventing further settlement.

Upon completion of the project, the homeowner was relieved to see the gap between the patio and the home fully closed, knowing their patio slab is now permanently stabilized and secure.
